Performance of a glucose meter with a built-in automated bolus calculator versus manual bolus calculation in insulin-using subjects.
BACKGROUND Patients consider multiple parameters in adjusting prandial insulin doses for optimal glycemic control. Difficulties in calculations can lead to incorrect doses or induce patients to administer fixed doses, rely on empirical estimates, or skip boluses. METHOD A multicenter study was conducted with 205 diabetes subjects who were on multiple daily injections of rapid/ short-acting in...
متن کاملCommentary on "Performance of a glucose meter with a built-in automated bolus calculator versus manual bolus calculation in insulin-using subjects".
Since the early 2000s, there has been an exponentially increasing development of new diabetes-applied technology, such as continuous glucose monitoring, bolus calculators, and "smart" pumps, with the expectation of partially overcoming clinical inertia and low patient compliance. However, its long-term efficacy in glucose control has not been unequivocally proven. In this issue of Journal of Di...
متن کاملGlucose Meters with Built-In Automated Bolus Calculator: Gadget or Real Value for Insulin-Treated Diabetic Patients?
Self-monitoring of blood glucose is now widely recognized as efficacious to enhance and facilitate diabetes management. More than just a means of recording and storing data, some blood glucose meters (BGMs) are now designed with an embedded automated bolus calculator (ABC) with the goal to propose patients recommendations about insulin dosage. The growing literature in this field tends to claim...
متن کاملefficacy of bolus insulin calculation by a mobile-based bolus advisor: an open label clinical trial
background: we investigated the efficacy of a mobile-based bolus advisor app in comparison with the usual multiple daily injections (mdis) in diabetic patients. materials and methods: in a nonrandomized, controlled clinical trial, 62 diabetic patients were selected to receive a 12-week intensive glycemic control by either a mobile-based bolus advisor (app) or mdi in the usual manner.we compa...
متن کاملBolus calculator with nutrition database software, a new concept of prandial insulin programming for pump users.
Bolus calculators are effective tools in controlling blood glucose levels in patients treated with insulin. Diabetics is a new software devised for patients to facilitate and improve self-managing for prandial insulin dosing and for better controlling food intake. This device contains two integral parts: a nutrition database and a bolus calculator. The algorithm is based on a formula in which c...
